What customers say about "Size & Weight"
Sony MDR-1000X Wireless Bluetooth Noise Cancelling Ambient Sound Touch Sensor High Resolution Audio Headphones - Black
- Quality is outstanding, and they look luxury. Could not be happier.
- I have had no issues so far and feel that the build quality on the headphones are reflected in the price, very well made.
- These headphones are amazing. Superb sound, very comfortable.
- Sound is rich, design is gorgeous and elegant, gesture controls are really intuitive and simple
- The noise cancelling works extremely well - so good on flights. They are very light too.
- There is IMHO a design fault. After relatively light use the head 'band' has snapped - I looked online and it seems this is a very common problem.

What customers say about "Features"
Sony MDR-1000X Wireless Bluetooth Noise Cancelling Ambient Sound Touch Sensor High Resolution Audio Headphones - Black
- Headphones are outstanding. Sound quality much better than competition (Bose because Beats are no a competition at all for them).
- Touch panel is very intuitive and easy to use. No problems at all with it even when I fall asleep in the plane.
- Sound quality - They sound just as impressive as my wired Beyerdynamic cans
- Touch gestures - Really innovative and easy to use. ANC - Noise cancelling was really good, no complaints here
- It blocks out nearly all the tube noise - apart from when there is significant screeching sounds!

What customers say about "Power"
